I would think that the size of the animals would make a difference in whether or not they could get drunk. But anyway, I heard that biologists think that the reason humans have a taste for alcohol goes back to our ancestors (the common ancestor of humans and apes). They may have eaten fermented fruit because of the alcohol taste--the fruit gave them the vitamins/sugars that they needed when what they "thought" they wanted (so to speak) was the alcohol. Their bodies developed a taste for alcohol so they could get these nutrients Retrokatze your links were about elephants.

I also saw a documentary on Animal Planted or Discovery that showed monkeys that lived in a resort town somewhere that would go around the pool and beaches at the hotel and steal peoples cocktails while they weren't looking and get hammered. Good times. The hung over monkeys were the best!
